    Nick & Sim,
    ID 2006/298 was withdrawn by the ATO on 1st December, 2006. Newsflash 138 (look under free publications) on bantacs.com.au has an article about my discussion with the ATO on why it was withdrawn. In short it is not that black and white, if a loan is advertised for its tax advantage and that is the dominant purpose the taxpayer enters into the loan it will be caught no matter what the name.
